This flooring might look like a expert installer’s job, but are you aware that you can DIY this cordwood flooring for your home?
If perhaps you’re a fan of the traditional look then you’re certainly going to love this floor idea. It’s rather simple considering it’s a home remodeling project!
In reality, the specific project as well as tutorial we share below displays a kitchen floor which was done by a woman together with her husband all on their own!
The only challenging part of this flooring task is if you don’t get access to wood in your own yard. You simply must harvest ‘dead’ wood, as well as for this, you must obtain a wood harvesting permit from the local forest service office.
In fact that legal aspect and once you’ve accumulated enough wood for your own floor, we say it’s exciting more than anything!
Just think about having that floor design and style, knowing you did all of it by yourself!
